Hello Tudor,


Thanks for your Feedback.

I rebased the patch on spi-nor/next
[https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mtd/linux.git/commit/?h=spi-nor/next&id=8f407eda173f1d43466636314c7aa30405e4dd67]
to align with new flash_info format.

I applied both changes as mentioned above i.e
1] Switch to SFDP and 2] Using BP Flags.

Case 1: Use BP Flags and Switch to SFDP
With both these changes, the lock/unlock doesn't work.

## x86-64-smarc-evk-uwd0j0007 # uname -r
6.6.0-rc2

# flash_lock -i /dev/mtd0
Device: /dev/mtd0
Start: 0
Len: 0x4000000
Lock status: unlocked
Return code: 0
# flash_lock -l /dev/mtd0
flash_lock: error!: could not lock device: /dev/mtd0

error 5 (Input/output error)


I suspected this is because of miscalculation of BP bits, like the
possibility mentioned here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mtd/linux.git/commit/?h=spi-nor/next&id=3ea3f0ac242c86c0275d347ab8c92bf1eb854b49


But further checked size, it is correct:

# mtd_debug info /dev/mtd0
mtd.type = MTD_NORFLASH
mtd.flags = MTD_CAP_NORFLASH
mtd.size = 67108864 (64M)
mtd.erasesize = 4096 (4K)
mtd.writesize = 1
mtd.oobsize = 0
regions = 0

And rest of read/write functions work as expected.

Any suggestions about this?

Case 2: Just added BP flags, rest of the size, mfr_flags, fixup flags
kept as it is.
Lock/unlock works.

Further I tested on stable 6.5.5 Kernel with old way of Flash Info
Format and which has forced PARSE_SFDP Flag, no issues with lock/unlock.
